Xia Ziyan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood that she regarded herself as a victim of the disaster who had lost her family...

That's fine... Excuse me from explaining how she came here...

Family··· After that, I can't see it again.

Brother, sister... Don't be sad, I'm living well here, just when I'm married on the other side of the world...

Thinking of the only bond, Xia Ziyan couldn't help but redden.

No one is so strong, from the explosion to the time to see many people being killed alive, to now I understand that I will be alone in this strange world after I understand it, and I can no longer see my relatives, the restraint and strength in my heart are still washed away by the anxiety of missing my family and the future...

She lay on her lap, tears like a spring, and sad tears fell on her legs...

Seeing this, Meng Niang blamed herself, "Oh, Miss Xia, don't cry, look at my mouth, ··· I shouldn't have mentioned it, oh, Miss Xia, don't cry, don't cry and break your body. ”

Xia Ziyan cried for a while, wiped her tears, and then looked at Meng Niang, who was anxious and blamed herself, "I'm sorry, I made you laugh." ”

"Anyway, it's my rough man who can't speak, which makes the girl unhappy." Meng Niang immediately blamed herself.

Xia Ziyan shook her head, her voice was a little hoarse, and said, "Sister Meng, are you looking for me for something?" ”

"Look at me, I almost forgot, it depends on whether you wake up or not, if you wake up, I will ask someone to bring you soup later, and I will go down and order." Meng Niang immediately patted her head, scolded herself, and said what she meant.

Xia Ziyan came to this world since the afternoon before yesterday, and she has never had an appetite, and she has been worried about where she is going in this strange space and how to adapt... I haven't eaten anything for two days...

At this time, when I was recovering from a serious illness, I was really hungry, so I didn't retreat, "Thank you." ”

"Oh, Miss Xia, don't be polite to me, this is what Meng Niang should do." Meng Niang grinned.

Xia Ziyan had questions yesterday, but then she fell ill, and at this moment, she couldn't help asking, "Sister Meng, who saved me?" I'm so thankful. "It saved her, in her most difficult time.

"Miss Xia, you were naturally rescued by the officials, this is a post station in the imperial court, and it was originally arranged to pass by the officials to settle down temporarily, not because of the flood, it is temporarily used as a place for rescue, but only women can settle here, and men are in other places." Aunt Meng said with a smile.

Xia Ziyan said in her heart, I see.

As for the other party saying that women are only allowed to live here, she thought that it was probably the difference between men and women, the courtesy of a gentleman, and the courtesy of women, after all, this is an ancient world, and in some ways it is the same as ancient China.

Judging from the dress and street dress of the people she came into contact with yesterday and today, as well as the habits of speaking, this is quite a feudal society on earth.

"Girl, then I'll go and order the food to be brought first, and you wait here." Meng Niang said.

Xia Ziyan nodded, what did she want to fight in her mind, and asked again, "Sister Meng, are there any books here for me to see?" ”

"Miss Xia is boring? Okay, I'll have someone bring you any books. Meng Niang smiled.

"Is there a huge selection of books here? Can I go there and see it? Xia Ziyan can't say what books she wants to read, as long as she arrives at the bookstore, she can choose to come.

"In this case, it's better to wait for you to eat, and when you get better, I'll take you there." Meng Niang said.

Xia Ziyan nodded, "Thank you." ”

After a while, the food was delivered, Xia Ziyan got out of bed, put on her coat, and went out to the outer room to eat some, ate half a big bowl, drank a bowl of soup, ate some vegetables, and was considered full.

Meng Niang persuaded her to eat more, but unfortunately, her appetite was really bad and she couldn't eat.

asked Meng Niang to take her to the library, she didn't want to lie down anymore after lying down for so long, and her strength recovered a lot at this time.

Meng Niang saw that she was in good condition, so she nodded and took her to··

This house, divided into extraordinary, middle and inner, Meng Niang told her that the rescued girls were all in the inner courtyard, the middle courtyard was the temporary settlement of those officials, and the outer courtyard was the outer courtyard that temporarily arranged people to help solve the disaster outside.

In her eyes, what she saw was a large courtyard that was more similar to Jiangnan style.

Walk to the other side of the inner courtyard and arrive at the library.

When Xia Ziyan entered, there was no one inside, and it was noon, and it was quiet.

Inside, there are three rows of books lined up on top.

Meng Niang was obviously not interested in reading, so she said, "Girl, I'm outside, if there is anything, you can just shout if you need anything." ”

Xia Ziyan nodded, "Thank you." ”

Then, she picked out some books that were dedicated to explaining the customs, geography, and laws of the country...

She is a genius, she studied in Taiwan when she was a child, and she used traditional characters, but fortunately, the characters in this world are also traditional.

Ten lines at a glance, it looks quite serious when it looks like a book...

A book, but also very quick to read··

But it was shocked!

It's a... A world where men are superior to women!

The ratio of men and women has been like this for hundreds of years, and thousands of years ago the ratio of men and women was relatively even, but everyone is quite patriarchal, in particular, many ordinary families have too many women to afford, either sell women or are low, resulting in women for various reasons can not be supported, not sick to be abused, and even other reasons...

Later, there were fewer and fewer women, and finally, a natural and man-made disaster, the plague appeared, swept several countries, and many people died, but the women's resistance was poor, and they died a lot...

Also because of the plague, the fertility of women who survived directly decreased by half, and it often took a few years to conceive.

At first, everyone thought it was a woman's problem, how could it be difficult to get pregnant in a few years.

However, when it was later discovered that this was the case in several countries, the imperial court understood that things were not simple.

It took almost a year or two for the medical team to come to the conclusion that the problem was not only with the woman, but also with the man, and both sides had a reason, because of the plague, they resisted the disaster, but their bodies had some mutations.

In the next ten years, the imperial court found that the ratio of male and female newborns was seriously imbalanced, and every 100 male babies were born compared to 50 female babies...

Later, the situation became more and more serious, and the imbalance between men and women became even greater.

After a few decades, several countries became more and more helpless, so they could only award two or three men to marry one woman, so as to maintain the opportunity for ordinary people to have daughters-in-law and reproduce the next generation...

However, the next hundred years are more serious, each family can give birth to a woman, it becomes a great joy, every man wants to marry a daughter-in-law to go home to continue the next generation of blood, the bride price is simply which family has more than which family has a chance...

In the end, many ordinary men cannot marry a daughter-in-law to continue their bloodline in their lives, that is, many men have embarked on robbing wealth, otherwise it is a matter of robbing women.

There is no way for the imperial court, those people know that they have broken the law, but they can be caught or not, the problem must be solved from the source...

Later, the court issued a new law, and from then on, women had to marry more men.

Although men still need to be excellent and capable to find a good home, they are also better, at least it feels fairer.

What level of woman she marries, what level of man she marries, or what kind of woman she has been degraded by the family that has committed a crime, is the existence of a man from the lowest class to marry.

In this way, ordinary men still have a chance to marry and continue their bloodline.

Men need to guard themselves before and after marriage, and point to guard the palace sand, otherwise, the body is unclean, and I am afraid that the reputation will be gone.

If a man marries someone, he needs to give the woman seventy or eighty percent of the family property, this money, in addition to marrying a woman, is also hoping that the woman will give birth to him to continue the bloodline, if the woman finally breaks up, if the woman helps the man give birth to a child, then seventy or eighty percent of the family property belongs to the woman, if the woman does not give birth to the man, the woman gets fifty percent of the family property, and the rest is returned to the man.

It is not allowed to snatch and kidnap women, otherwise, they will be severely punished without loans, and they will be killed at worst, and they will be sentenced to prison for ten years, twenty years or even longer, and then the family property will be confiscated!

Women were especially cherished because they were scarce, so the court was particularly lenient with the laws of women, as long as they were married to at least four men between the ages of fifteen and twenty-two, and had children for men.

Unless, if you really commit serious rebellion, treason and other crimes, otherwise, you will not raid your home and kill women...

The ordinary crime is to punish some family property, and if it is locked up for a while, it is more serious to be a slave, that is, to become the lowest level of society, just a tool for ordinary people to continue their bloodline.

Until these few hundred years, the imbalance between men and women was roughly 5:1 male, or even worse.

Therefore, the imperial court issued a marriage ordinance that a woman must marry at least one man after she reaches the age of fifteen, and between fifteen and twenty-two three, she must marry at least five or six men.

A woman who is dissatisfied with a man can divorce a man, but there must be evidence that there is a reason. If the husband and wife have incompatible personalities, in addition to Hugh, they can also be reconciled, which is much better for the man's reputation.

And what surprised her was that this woman gave birth to children, if it was twins or triplets, each child might have a different bloodline, and several husbands could get a bloodline at the same time... This is still quite normal...

How can you distinguish whether it is your own bloodline, that is, there is a kind of fruit, ten days and a half after the child is born, you can get a drop of blood from the child, and then drop a drop of fruit juice, and then drop a drop of blood from the father one after another, if it can be fused with the baby's blood, the fruit juice can also be fused with the blood of the two, it is the blood of the family, that is, the child is the father's...

Xia Ziyan was puzzled, can she really believe it, there is a scientific basis?

That fruit juice, so miraculously can be used as a DNA detector?

It took fifteen minutes of shock to digest it...

It's to read another book about the geography and customs of several countries...

It took more than an hour to finish reading.

She put the two books back on the shelf, and selected a few more books, which were mixed with a book on the law of her own country, and went out with five or six books.

When Meng Niang saw her come out, she smiled and said, "Girl, have you finished reading?" ”

"Sister Meng, can I take these books back to read?" Xia Ziyan asked.
